Moreover, most women will miraculously find that their faces have changed a lot and their skin has become better after having facial beauty massage. So what kind of professional techniques are used when performing facial beauty massage?

Magical method to double your beauty

Lymphatic drainage sequence

When you wake up in the morning, the skin in the mirror feels smooth and clear - this is all the result of lymphatic detoxification: when lying flat, toxins flow along the circulation from the center line of the nose to both sides of the face and are eliminated.

This is also one of the main theories of skin care techniques: follow the direction of facial lymphatic drainage, from top to bottom, divide the entire face into three areas: forehead, cheek and chin; with the nose as the central axis, press to both sides in sequence.

Makeup remover: First warm and activate the makeup remover in the palm of your hand, then apply it from top to bottom and from the center axis of the nose to both sides. After applying it on the forehead, cheeks and chin respectively, use your palm to gently press in an adsorption manner to clean makeup and oil out of the pores.

Cleansing foam: Use warm water to make foam in the palm of your hand, apply the foam on your face in a circular motion (use the foam to drive the circular sliding motion, try not to pull the skin) to clean the skin, and then rinse with clean water.

Eye cream: The skin around the eyes is the thinnest on the face and has no sweat glands. Therefore, be sure to use eye cream before face cream, otherwise oil particles may be produced. As for essence, it depends on whether the specific product can be applied to the eyes: if it is an essence that can be used on the eyes, please use it before eye cream. Squeeze out a grain-sized amount of eye cream and use the middle and ring fingers of both hands (the two fingers with the lightest force) to gently press from the inner corner of the eye to the outer corner of the eye. You can make a slight circular motion, but the amplitude and force must be small.

Essence, facial cream: follow the direction of facial lymphatic drainage, from the central axis of the nose to both sides, divide the entire face into three areas: forehead, cheeks and chin, and apply the entire face. Then use your palms to gently pull the facial cream along the above direction. Night cream and essence can be massaged lightly.

Pore ​​opening direction

When we stand, the pores on our faces are open facing downwards. This simple but direct reason is an important reference for Shiseido's daily skin care routine.

Eye makeup removal: Cover the eyes with two makeup sheets soaked in eye makeup remover lotion/liquid, press gently with both hands, wait until it warms up, and slowly wipe off eye shadow, eyeliner and other makeup from top to bottom. Then place the cotton pad under your eyes, dip the cotton swab in eye makeup remover, and carefully comb and clean the remaining mascara stains.

Toner: Gently patting toner on your face with your palms may feel comfortable and won’t feel like a waste, but this method is not the best way to evenly apply the toner to your entire face. The correct way is: start with a cotton pad soaked in toner from the center of the forehead, with the midline of the nose as the central axis, and apply it horizontally to the left and right, and from top to bottom across the face. With this technique, even the eye socket area can evenly enjoy the cleansing and moisturizing effects of the softener.

Skin care lotion/cream: If you want your skin to better absorb products rich in moisturizing ingredients, it is very effective to push the product from bottom to top along the direction of the opening of the pores. First, apply the cream on the chin, cheeks, forehead and tip of the nose. Then start from the chin and move slowly upwards in a circular motion, through the nose, to the forehead; then apply the cream on the cheeks from both sides of the mouth upwards. If it is a lotion, you can make better use of your palms and press over a large area to spread it evenly. For products with soothing fragrances, this method allows sensitive noses to enjoy the fragrant comfort first.
